Dear Charlie, Valerie, and Bradley:
It is with such sadness that I write to tell you how deeply sorry for the loss of your beloved mother. I remember back to 1994 when I lost my own mother and know the “cutting of the roots” one feels when a parent departs.
In time your roots will reattach again and the painful sense of loss diminishes as you know that God has a better place for her to be, in heaven where we are free of pain and worry.
Trust in the lord and give thanks for the blessings you have in your life right now and the time you had with your mother. The memories will sustain you and help to comfort you. Hang pictures of her, and there she will be right there with you. God Bless.
Your Aunt Mary J Bruno
